The Ashes Jazz Ensemble Presents: Christmas in July
Please note this is a private event with limited capacity. If you are interested in attending, contact
theashesmusicadmin@gmail.com by July 5th 2026 to reserve a ticket.
As the Melbourne frost settles outside, we’re stoking the fire and transforming the studio into a candlelit European style sanctuary. You are cordially invited to Christmas in July: an intimate evening of warmth, high-fidelity sound, and "Old World" Yuletide cheer.
Soundtrack
Prepare for a front-row seat as The Ashes take the stage. Our resident 6-piece jazz ensemble will be performing a live, curated set of festive classics and swinging standards to keep the room glowing from 5pm until late.
Feast
Expect a table laden with a hearty, warm winter dinner and the nostalgic scents of the season. We’ll be pouring plenty of cheer, featuring signature cocktails and pots of spiced mulled wine simmering on the stove.
Vibe
Think "Period Home Elegance." To lean into the European theme, we invite you to dress in your finest Red or Green Yuletide attire. Whether it’s a velvet blazer or a festive knit, come ready to toast to good company.
Game
We’ll cap off the night with a classic Christmas "number-from-a-hat" gift exchange - a little bit of mystery to ensure everyone leaves with a smile.
